Facts about T-cell-specific guanine nucleotide triphosphate-binding protein 2.
gondii infection, recruited to the parasitophorous vacuole (PV) membrane, leading to PV vesiculation and rupture, and subsequent digestion of the parasite within the cytosol (PubMed:19265156, PubMed:24563254). Not recruited to virulent type I T.

Expressed in thymus and lymph nodes, predominantly T-cells. Not expressed by immature CD4(+) CD8(+) thymocytes (at protein level) (PubMed:7836757). Expressed in IFNG- stimulated macrophages (PubMed:7884320). Expressed at low levels in unstimulated astrocytes (PubMed:19285957). Due to sequence similarity with Tgtp1, it is impossible to assign unambiguously experimental data published in the literature to Tgtp1 or Tgtp2 gene.
